"...I have been gravely disappointed with the white moderate. I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro's great stumbling block in the stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen's Council-er or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate who is more devoted to "order" than to justice; who prefers a negative peace which is the absence of tension to a positive peace which is the presence of justice; who constantly says "I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I can't agree with your methods of direct action;" who paternalistically feels he can set the timetable for another man's freedom; who lives by the myth of time and who constantly advises the Negro to wait until a "more convenient season." -MLK Jr.

I would strongly suggest against posting content that advocates Jews, homosexuals or anything else that goes against the tenets of National Socialism - similarly to NS and internet forums in general, there aren't that many enlightened individuals on Stormfront or other National Socialist forums who could overlook their pre-conceived ideological notions to look at things from the other side. Part of them are overly-enthusiastic about their ideology, part of them are just posers who (like a lot of self-proclaimed liberal kids here) demonstrate their ideological orthodoxy to fit in, and some are just plain losers frustrated about their lives and seeking an outlet to their anger, genuine intelligent National Socialists making up a strong minority. I hence prefer to lone-wolf rather than run with the pack - I have that nasty habit of thinking too much to make a good ideological follower to any idea.

Personally, I find the strong nationalism, socialist economic ideas and the collective interests of a nation being held above selfish individual desires appealing in National Socialism, as well as it's harsh realist take on politics and life in general.

I do believe that every race has it's unique and inherent qualities that are the product of thousands of years of natural and cultural selection, that any race can ascend to superiority over others thanks to those qualities under the right circumstances, and that races shouldn't mix to avoid losing those qualities and their identity that makes them unique. That would probably qualify me as a sworn racist by liberal standards. I don't, however, see why that should prevent constructive cooperation between folks of different races or justify unnecessary violence against one or another group.

I hope that more or less answers your questions.
Proud National Socialist. Blaming everything on the liberals since 2000.

The world is full of criminal enterprises and terrorist organizations. The most successful ones are known as states.

Life is like surfing the Internet - there's no meaning or purpose, yet you don't really want to quit either.

The fact that slaves are allowed to elect their masters does not abolish the division in masters and slaves.

Don't try to deride me by calling me an "-ist" or "-phobe" unless you are referring to a medical condition or are trying to compliment me.

Socially-liberal capitalist democracy DOES NOT equate to free society.

Contrary to popular belief, National Socialists aren't racists. They simply hate their own race less than others.

Some cultures places different emphasis on certain things than others. I read a survey somewhere, I think it was in a book by Dr Albert Ellis, that Asians, on average, have a slightly lower IQ than white people. Yet, because Asian culture places more emphasis on focus and strictures than white people, they are able to perform better, even on a equal, or lower level of intelligence.

It isn't, it isn't a matter of inherent qualities of a race, but the enviorment in which the individual child was raised.

Minor variations in appearance or whatever doesn't make a race. A different race would be a different species.

IQ tests are extremely limited and also ethno-centric, the cultural thing is a bit of a stereotype.

Essentially they're just measuring your skills of categorisation amongst other things. I heard an interesting appraisal of it once. While we might describe a rat as a rodent and a mammal, our agrarian ancestors, who would have scored quite low on IQ tests just as Sub-Saharan agrarian people do today, would have answered that it was something that a cat chased.

What one culture considers intelligence might not be the same for another.

Possibly. There is a correlation between further education - especially sciences - and less rightwing politics.

As such, people who are to the left (of the right wing) are more likely to understand how a concept like 'race' is meaningless.

but pod-races beat them all hands-down. I think Star Wars showed us that much.

You live in Narnia, or some other magical place where liberal means the opposite of what it actually means. When you want to have an actual discussion between mature adults, expand your vocabulary.


My use of "liberal" is in accordance and constistent with everything liberals do and promote. Funny you should mention vocabulary, considering I'm a linguist, my vocabulary is most likely many times that of yours.


And mine is likely many times larger than yours*. But vocabulary size proves very little in this discussion.

EDIT: * vocabulary, obviously.

It's one of the common complaints with regard to IQ testing (the other main one being that you can 'learn' how to score better on IQ tests). It's pretty commonly accepted that IQ tests tend to be culturally biased.

(For example - any question that uses letter or word patterns has some cultural bias, since it gives preference to people that speak that language fluently).
